I'll Save My Life For Something Good

Like most of my blogs, I never know where to start, but always know the point I went to get across come the final sentence. Life is such a strange serious of events. The other night, I was thinking about the two ideas that completely contrast one another: fate and free will. Fate is defined as the supposed force, principle, or power that predetermines events. Free will is defined as the ability or discretion to choose. But what if it was possible for a combination of fate and free will. What if it was our fate for an event to happen that would drastically change our lives? Who is to say that we don't have the free will choice of how we get to that point? If something is meant to happen, it will eventually happen. Correct? I would hate to believe that it is just one or the other. God knows where I will be in four years. However, I do not. Let me use my free will to get me to the fate God has chosen for me.
